線を引いた部分について
意味的には100ドルを支払えますか？みたいな感じだと思うのですが、なぜstretchなのかわからないです。stretchの意味を調べましたがそのような意味はないと思いました。これは話の流れで理解するものなのでしょうか？

前文のAikaがI don't have a lot of money on me.でお金をあんまり沢山持っていません。と言っていて、receptionistが続いて定価は100ドルです。と言っているので、「払えますか？」という訳出が正しいと思われます。
stretchについてですが、伸ばすの他にもスラング表現で「盛る、大袈裟に言う」という意味があります。
例）My money won’t stretch to a new game console.
私のお金では新しいゲーム機が買えない。　
［引用:ジーニアス英和辞典］

ここでは、あなたは盛れますか？と直訳するのではなく、あなたは払えますか？と意訳する必要があります。お金をあまり持っていないAikaに対して定価を提示した後、払えるかの確認をしたんですね。
なぜstretchなのかを考えるのではなく、そのような表現もあるのだなと柔軟に受け入れて、大きい枠組みの意味のイメージでつかむことが大切です。
